Prince Louis photo: A kiss for Royal baby brother from sister Charlotte

Just hours after he was born, Prince Louis became one of the most photographed infants in the world as he made his first appearance in front of cheering crowds at the Lindo Wing. But when it comes to capturing the newborn Prince for posterity, nothing could come close to the loving gaze of his mother. The Duchess of Cambridge has released touching photographs of her baby son, taken when he was just three days old. In one, he is seen calm and wide-eyed, in a white outfit on top of a cushion and blanket embroidered with a rose. The second shows him receiving a gentle kiss from his big sister Princess Charlotte, as she cradles him carefully.

Princess Charlotte had celebrated her birthday with her family, with the Prince of Wales, her grandfather, popping in to meet his newest grandson.

The two photographs mark both of the significant landmarks for the Cambridge family: one birth and one birthday. The Duke and Duchess also celebrated their seventh wedding anniversary on April 29th.
